Hezbollah: "We will destroy the north [of Israel] and everyone in it. Our response [to the elimination of a top Hezbollah commander] will be to unleash unrelenting fire in order to subdue Israel."
IDF: "The situation in the north is grave and we will respond with great force."

While full-scale war between Israel and Hezbollah appears imminent, a new civil war in Lebanon is also brewing.
Christians, Druze and Sunni Muslims are talking about taking up arms against Hezbollah to prevent the Iranian proxy from dragging the country to ruin.
Hezbollah isn't going to surrender without a fight, so war is likely necessary. But it should be clear that it won't be Israel vs. Lebanon.
Israel will have allies, or at least forces with common cause on the Lebanese side.

After quitting the emergency unity government, Benny Gantz has reversed some of his positions.
Summary of his Channel 12 interview last night:
Gantz: Suggests that Shiri Bibas and her children are dead.
Bibas family: Irresponsible remark. We continue to hold out hope.
---
Gantz: Netanyahu prevented a hostage release deal.
Likud: Netanyahu gave full authority to negotiators to reach a deal. It was Hamas that prevented a deal by insisting on an end to the war before its goals are met.
---
Gantz: Israel should end the war in Gaza, and resume it in a year or two.
In other words, get the hostages back now by agreeing to a "permanent" ceasefire as Hamas demands, and then destroy Hamas later. A totally naive position that will allow Hamas to rebuild, and which assumes the international community will support Israel launching another major Gaza war at a later date.
---
Gantz: We should reach a diplomatic solution with Hezbollah.
With all his experience, does Gantz still not understand who and what Hezbollah is? It is not a pragmatic group that can be reasoned with. It exists for the sole purpose of destroying Israel, and is driven by fanatical devotion to jihadist Islam.

Benny Gantz is positioning himself as the Neville Chamberlain of Israel.

75% of Palestinians are "satisfied" with Hamas's war on Israel, and if Palestinian elections were held today, the terror group would win easily.

REPORT: The Biden admin will impose sanctions on Israeli demonstrators who prevented aid trucks from entering Gaza at a time when Hamas was stealing all the aid.
Once again, this seems obsessive, hypocritical and over the top.
There are disruptive and destructive demonstrations taking place all over the world, including on American university campuses.
Why the exaggerated focus on and punitive action against only those in Israel?
